Former Team India coach Greg Chappell has been contracted by Cricket
Australia (CA) to work as consultant coach at its Centre of Excellence
in Brisbane.
According to 'Sydney Morning Herald', Chappell, along with his Team India predecessor
John Wright and former Australian pacer Bruce Reid, has been roped
in to work part-time in the academy.
Incidentally, Reid too had a stint with the Indian cricket
team as its bowling coach during the side's Down Under tour in 2003.
Wright was in fact CA's first choice to fill the void created
after Tim Nielsen left the head coach's job to succeed John Buchanan
with the Australian team.
But Wright, who has a successful 2000-2005 stint with the Indian side, was
not ready to relocate his family and withdrew from the race.
